Welcome!

Rotary is a worldwide organization of business and professional leaders that provides humanitarian service, encourages high ethical standards in all vocations, and helps build goodwill and peace in the world. Approximately 1.2 million Rotarians belong to more than 32,000 clubs in more than 200 countries and geographical areas.

The Rotary Club of Bolingbrook upholds these goals along with supporting the local community here at home through service projects, fundraising and scholarships to local students. Since 1975 the Rotary Club of Bolingbrook has awarded over $800,000 in scholarships to Bolingbrook students. The club has donated and supported local organizations such as H20 Heart Haven Outreach, Bolingbrook Park District, The H.E.A.R.T. Organization, local food pantries and more.

Please join us as we meet every Tuesday on the 2nd floor at Ashbury's at 12:15pm. 335 E. Boughton Rd, Bolingbrook, IL 60440.

NOW SEEKING APPLICANTS TO HOST EXCHANGE STUDENT

 

We are now seeking host families for our Rotary Youth Exchange. This is a great chance for you and your family to interact with a student from a foreign country and experience a new culture and expanded world view. Our student is from Denmark and will be attending Plainfield East High School. We are seeking two families to share in hosting our student for three months each.

 

"My dream is for every 17-year old to become a Youth Exchange student. If we could achieve this, there would be no more wars."

                            ~Carl-Wilhelm Stenhammar,

                                President of Rotary International 2005-2006

 

The only financial obligation a host family is undertaking is the food and shelter for the student. All other expenses, such as clothing and education are paid either by the student's natural parents or by Rotary. Rotary even covers the student's pocket money (monthly allowance). For more information contact Gail Smith, Rotex Advisor and Outbound Coordinator, 630-408-3201 or rotary@eternaljoy.net.
